Gathering feedback from the users was important for us so that we could learn which aspects of the screensaver were received well, and which we were to improve for the future. From the private users that downloaded the screensaver via internet, we received a lot of positive feedback by comments in the software archives. In particular, PC users liked the design of it and the funny tone.
In order to get feedback from the employees of Daimler-Benz, we made an agreement with the IT devision to give us information on how the employees reacted to the screensaver and how many were installed.
The numbers just exceeded our highest expectations. Within three months time more than 9000 employees downloaded our screensavers to their working stations. And this is just the beginning, because the screensaver continues to be available. The IT devision also asked some of the employees their thoughts on the screensaver – most responded very well and found the information delivered useful.
